We have developed a program offering mini grants to Oconee County teachers and support staff who wish to implement creative and innovative educational projects within their classrooms, but are unable to secure funding through traditional sources. That's where we step in.
Mini-grant monies must be used to purchase materials, supplies, equipment, etc. necessary for the successful completion of a project. For example, a mini grant could be used to purchase science equipment for a special science experiment, to purchase software packages for computer applications in any number of curriculum areas, or to fund parent study skill programs designed to improve the quality of parental involvement in their child’s homework.
